Also during Q1 2019:
-- Public portfolio gross total return was 13.6% versus the Russell Microcap Index increase of 13.1%. Public portfolio increased in value by approximately $4.4 million, or $0.14 per share.

The Company also published a letter to shareholders that can be viewed at https://ir.180degreecapital.com/financial-results.

“It was another solid quarter for our public holdings,” said Kevin M. Rendino, Chief Executive Officer of 180. “Our public portfolio’s gross total return of 13.6% slightly outperformed the 13.1% total return for the Russell Microcap Index. Going back to the beginning of 2017, we have achieved a 108.4% gross total return in our public holdings versus an 8.6% total return for the Russell Microcap Index. The growth in our NAV of $0.12, or 4.5%, this quarter came solely from our public portfolio companies net of our operating expenses. Similar to recent quarters, our private portfolio had minimal to no impact on our NAV quarter-over-quarter. Since the beginning of 2017, our public portfolio companies account for 90% of the growth of our NAV from $2.34 to $2.76.”

Mr. Rendino and Daniel Wolfe, President, Chief Financial Officer and Portfolio Manager, will host a conference call tomorrow, Thursday, May 2, 2019, at 9am Eastern Time, to discuss the results from the first quarter of 2019.
